Shattered Cross

F#m   E     F#m

[Verse 1]

F#m       A                  D      A
You don’t mess around with a man in black
    F#m           A              D          E
You say something wrong that you can’t take back
D            A           E
You go for a ride in his automobile
    F#m         A          D        A
The spot in the woods just over the hill
        D          A             E      F#m
No, you don’t mess around with a man in black

[Verse 2]

    F#m        A             D        A
You don’t fool around with a woman in red
    F#m      A          D          E
You wake up alone in a cold barren bed
       D          A                        E
She’ll empty your pockets and rip out your heart
    F#m            A          D          A
And leave you with ruins of a life torn apart
        D          A             E        F#m
No, you don’t fool around with a woman in red

[Verse 3]

    F#m        A            D         A
You never make deals with a guy named Doc
               F#m        A        D    A
You’ll have a gun in your hands by 12 o’clock
           D      A                E
And if the sodium lights with your heart in your throat
     F#m         A          D          A
Your life won’t amount to a bottle of smoke
        D          A            E         F#m
No, you never make deals with a guy named doc

[Verse 4]

      F#m           A            D          A
Don’t bring me your tales of temptation and loss
    F#m          A             D        A
The rags of your dreams, your shattered cross
     D             A                       E
I’ve heard your confession, I know who you blame
       D          A               E
If you had it all back you’d just lose it again
        F#m       A           D        A
You can bank on redemption if you’re insane

         D             A            E          F#m
So don’t bring me your tales of temptation and loss
         D            A         E    F#m
Oh don’t bring me the pieces of your shattered cross
